138-Negoitable insturments Act

tamilarasibabu (Querist) 27 January 2009 This query is : Resolved
I need any High COurt /Supreme Court judgement in context of accused should not take the defense of summoning IT returns filed by the complainant necessary to prove whether the said amount is shown in the Income Tax returns(petition filed under Section 243)
In most of the 138 -NI Act this tactis used by the accused side simply to drag the proceedings.

In proceding under N.I. Act presumption is against accused.
He has right to defend himself.
No law can deprive him from his right.

Accused or any parties to the proceedings to the case are at liberty to summons any perosn or authority for production or giving any evidence, unless and until it is irrelevant it cannot be said that it is for the sake of draging on the case.
